Below the stone forest, deep inside the cave, Li Yao was moaning in pain in the darkness. − 79
Under the control of the tailbone, a vivid and lifelike bone tail swayed slightly behind him, scratching out a series of shallow marks on the rock.
Hum! Hum! Hum! Hum! Dozens of beast puppets the size of bees were patrolling in the depths of the cave. Their mystic rays scanned every gap between the rocks and Li Yao and his bone tail.
"Don't attack!"
Li Yao opened his mouth and gnashed his teeth. "I am Han Tuhu, the major general of the Flying Tigers Legion! I've brought important intelligence back from the Blood Demon Sector! I want to meet the Iron Commander! I want to meet the Iron Commander! "
The beast puppets hovered in midair for a long time and scanned Li Yao's appearance clearly, including the black shell below his ragged combat suit, the bone tail that was as sharp as a spear, and the tusks that were slightly protruding out of his mouth.
Very soon, the beast puppets dispersed, and a cold voice echoed in the darkness. "Don't move. Major General Han was sacrificed a year and a half ago. You are clearly a demon. How can you be Major General Han?
"Who are you exactly? What do you want after sneaking into the Tian Yuan Realm?"
A bright gray crystal suit gradually surfaced from the darkness. On the two sides of the facial cover, there were two horns that were rising high. Together with the delicate dragon scales, they constituted the shape of a hideous dragon head.
Li Yao covered his abdomen. Blood was dripping between his fingers. He breathed heavily, his bone tail dangling to one side helplessly. With a face full of pain, he said, "It's a long story, but I'm really Han Tuhu. I have important intelligence to report to the Iron Commander, which will determine the outcome of the war!
"You are from the Dragon Horse Legion, aren't you? I'm an old acquaintance of your commander, Duanmu Ming. Bring me to Duanmu Ming. Everything will be clear!"
The Exo on his opposite side was still on high alert. The black barrel of the gun was aimed at Li Yao's head. The helmet in the shape of a dragon head gradually turned transparent, revealing a face that was as cold as ice.
"I am Duanmu Ming. You said that you are Han Tuhu? What proof do you have?! "
"Brother Duanmu!"
Li Yao was wild with joy. However, it affected his wound, which seemed to be a ghastly sight. He shuddered, and under Duanmu Ming's fierce gaze, he took out a healing potion from his bosom. He sprayed a large mass of blue gel on the bloody wound until the wound was completely covered. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief, and a trace of color returned to his face. (

"I know, I look like this now. It's hard to believe, but please listen to my explanation, Brother Duanmu. Our conversation may change the future of the Federation! "
Li Yao smiled bitterly. "I was not killed in the Dark Desolate Domain more than a year ago. Instead, I was captured by Elder Nether Spring, one of the four giants of the Blood Demon Sector, and brought back to the depths of the Blood Demon Sector. After countless inhumane experiments, I was modified into this appearance that is neither human nor demon!
"Before, I was given a temporary cell suppressant. I could temporarily turn into the appearance of a human being, but I was heavily wounded under the scourge of the bombardment just now. It was impossible for me to maintain the form anymore. I had no choice but to reveal … my hideous true face!
"I know that all of this sounds slightly unbelievable, but Brother Duanmu, you must believe me. It's impossible for me to make up such a lie that's full of loopholes!"
"I do have very important intelligence that I must report to Iron Commander in person. Brother Duanmu, please arrange for me to meet Iron Commander immediately!"
Inside Duanmu Ming's secret communication channel … His advisor's voice came over. "The appearance comparison has been completed. It is indeed Han Tuhu's demon form."
Duanmu Ming's eyes suddenly shone. He pondered for a moment and said coldly, "Iron Commander is not someone that you can meet whenever you want. There are too many loopholes in your story! If you are really Han Tuhu … Why did you turn around and run away the moment you saw the Union Army? How were you teleported back to the Tian Yuan Realm safely from the Blood Demon Sector? Did you come back alone, or did more demons come back with you? Very important intelligence? What is it? "
Li Yao coughed hard and breathed heavily. "I didn't plan to run away. I only wanted to get in touch with you openly. But then I found Vulture Li Yao's cemetery. I heard the news of his death. "
"How — how is it possible?"
"Vulture Li Yao is clearly not dead. He teleported himself to the Blood Demon Sector and rescued me from Elder Nether Spring. Then, we fought side by side until now!
"This time, he was planning to teleport back to the Tian Yuan Realm with me, too, but he was delayed by some important affairs. Therefore, I was asked to bring some important intelligence back first so that I could communicate with the Federation.
"But the moment I landed, I saw his tombstone!
"There must be a great scheme behind it. I was dizzy and saw that four crystal warships were coming at me aggressively. That was why I fled in a hurry!
"Brother Duanmu, what is going on exactly? How can you confirm Li Yao's death? Who told you that Li Yao was dead? The debris of a starship deep inside the Grand Desolate Plateau? Brother Duanmu, did you see it with your own eyes? "
Duanmu Ming stepped forward, his voice even colder than before. "I'm the one asking you questions! What important intelligence did you bring back? "
"I won't tell you!"
Li Yao's tail was tightened again. Intense demonic energy was spreading out in the darkness like an unsheathed saber. He said brutally, "I don't know who I should trust if I don't solve the mystery of Li Yao's death, including you, Brother Duanmu. If you saw the debris of Li Yao's crash with your own eyes, I don't know whether or not I should trust you, either!"
Duanmu Ming was silent for a moment. Hesitating, he asked, "Brother … Brother Han, was it really you?"
"Of course it was me!"
Li Yao was overjoyed. "Brother Duanmu, are you finally convinced? What exactly is' Li Yao's death '? I'm almost confused!"
Duanmu Ming narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Alright. After all, it is not a secret among the leadership of the Federation. It doesn't matter if I tell you. Of course, I didn't see the debris of a crashed starship with my own eyes because Li Yao is not dead at all. The mausoleum outside and the announcement of his death to the public are all fake reas."
Li Yao was greatly surprised. "Why fake the death of Vulture Li Yao?"
"Because a lot of evidence can prove that Vulture Li Yao has defected and joined the demon race. He is now an important person in the Pantheon of Demons. He is in a close relationship with Jin Tuyi, the commander-in-chief of the Coalition Army of Demons. The two of them are in cahoots!
"Some of the top intelligence even suggests that he is in a close relationship with Jin Xinyue, Jin Tuyi's favorite daughter. It is very likely that he will become Jin Tuyi's heir and the most dangerous enemy of the Federation as Jin Tuyi's son-in-law!"
"…" Li Yao.
"Brother Han, your wounds are really heavy. You are bleeding from your facial orifices. Do you need treatment first?"
"No. That's unnecessary," Li Yao replied. "I can still take it!"
"Li Yao is the first living hero of the Special Level Federation since the founding of the Xing Yao Federation five hundred years ago," Duanmu Ming said. "In fact, Brother Han, you know very well that he was granted such a supreme honor ten years ago because everybody thought that he was dead.
"Over the past ten years, the government of the Federation has promoted Li Yao as a symbol of 'spirit'. The propaganda has reached the peak after he returned with the fleet of the Flying Star Sector!
"Vulture Li Yao has become a pillar in the hearts of many citizens of the Federation. The pillar can be broken and collapsed, but it must not be corrupted!
"If all the citizens of the Federation learn that a great hero of the Special Level Federation has defected, what will they think? Where will their morale be? Where will their fighting will be? Won't the 'spirit' of the Federation be the greatest joke?
"Therefore, in order to stabilize the morale of the soldiers, and to protect the honor of Li Yao, the hero of the Federation in the past, the crime scene of his death was fabricated and the news of his death was announced.
"In fact, it is not exactly a 'fabrication'. Vulture Li Yao, the 'hero of the Special Level Federation' who fought for mankind in the past, has indeed perished. We will never admit that the devil who is having sex with Jin Tuyi in the Pantheon of Demons right now is the real Li Yao!"
Li Yao was silent. His heart in a mess, he managed to reply, "Vulture Li Yao has defected? What a great joke! "
"If you are really Brother Han, you were captured to the Blood Demon Sector a year and a half ago. You might not know a lot of things," Duanmu Ming said calmly.
"Of course, the real Li Yao cannot have defected. But the Li Yao you met in the Blood Demon Sector was possessed by a very dreadful 'Blood Devil'. It was no longer Li Yao. It was just causing trouble with the shell of Li Yao.
"Since ancient times, demons have always been a family. Is it strange that Li Yao, who has been possessed by the Blood Devil, is in cahoots with the demons?"
"That's nonsense!"
Li Yao burst into fury. "What do you mean by 'Blood Devil'? Which son of a b * tch said that? "
"The real Li Yao told us in a message before his death," Duanmu Ming said.
"…" Li Yao.
Duanmu Ming stepped forward again and said sincerely, "Brother Han Tuhu, I am willing to believe that you are the real Han Tuhu because your appearance is too weird. If this is a scheme, there are too many loopholes in it.
"However, the Li Yao you met in the Blood Demon Sector is definitely not the real Li Yao. Whatever he asked you to do, it must be a great scheme!
"Therefore, tell me everything you know, and we will go to the Iron Commander together!"
Li Yao was deep in thought. He lowered his head and mumbled, "How — how is it possible? Who leaked the news of Li Yao's betrayal, and who provided the evidence of his betrayal so that you would believe it without a doubt? "
